I agree with your assessments of governments, but your assessments of power issues are pretty misguided.

You seem to be arguing that demand for renewable power will...make there be less renewable power available? Which is not really how economics works. Creating lots of power demand isn't going to make us like, run out of sunlight. It's going to raise the price of power. It's going to compensate people for building more capacity. It's going to do all the things that we want.

In fact, by providing a constant demand for excess power generation which is currently hard to store, crypto-currencies can substantially improve the economic profile of building out lots of capacity that otherwise wouldn't make economic sense.
